Berkshire Hathaway, led by new CEO Greg Abel, has shifted its investment strategy by selling about 16 positions and significantly increasing its stake in Alphabet, Google's parent company. This move marks a departure from Warren Buffett's traditional avoidance of big tech, except for Apple. Alphabet's strong financial performance, driven by AI and cloud growth, makes it a compelling investment with a reasonable valuation. Abel's decision suggests Berkshire may embrace more tech-driven growth companies, signaling a potential long-term change in the firm's investment approach.
